Valentine Hearts in the Kitchen





Don't you believe in putting love into your cooking?



I do! Red pepper hearts for the little valentines.



Sweet things don't always mean it's full of sugar.





We didn't eat on time



as you can see I had alot of fun
preparing dinner.





This just shows hearts can



be put back together with love.
I did eventually get my fajitas made.





Kids love visual shapes at the table.



Fresh vegetables are good for everyone.



Red fruits and vegetables are loaded with goodies.






And, of course, I had to save the red pepper seeds!

Hip Polka Dots Farm Style...by Candylei



Well, when folks get tired of milking cows on the farm there are still many other fun things to do. Here they painted polka dots on the pink silo and brought in antiques and set up shop in the barn. It's an eye catcher on the road. People just have to stop.



Here is the house not too far from the barn, but right on the road and it is painted with polka dot shutters. Everyone has to stop to see what this little beekeepers cottage shop sells just because it is so cute! Great marketing and fun antiquing. This is along a back road to the airport for those of us who don't want to sit in traffic on the freeways and would rather look at fields of horses. The name of the town is Lucketts, Virginia. All they need is a little nursery in the backyard and I would stop every time I passed by. On the weekends this little corner is abuzz with shoppers.
